The Lula government is said to be studying other ways to regulate social media before the 2024 election. The goal is to approve, by October of this year, rules for the digital election campaign, so that they can apply in next year’s municipal election.
According to information from the newspaper Folha de São Paulo, the government would already be articulating itself to place its priorities in a mini electoral reform to be voted in the National Congress, in addition to changes in consumer law laws.
This would be a government “plan B” following the Bill No. 2630/2020also called Fake News PL, have had their vote postponed and there is no short-term forecast for the text to be voted in the National Congress.
The government’s objective is to approve some changes in the internet by October of this year because, by the principle of annuality, to be valid in the 2024 election, all changes need to be approved at least one year before the election.
